Understanding post-red giant branch binaries through stable mass transfer

Astronomy & Astrophysics
Context. Post-red giant branch (post-RGB) and post-asymptotic giant branch (post-AGB) binaries consist of a primary star that has recently evolved off either the RGB or AGB after losing the majority of its envelope and a main-sequence companion.

Model Choice Matters for Age Inference on the Red Giant Branch

The Astrophysical Journal
Galactic archaeology relies on accurate stellar parameters to reconstruct the Galaxy's history, including information on stellar ages. While the precision of data has improved significantly in recent years, stellar models used for age inference have not ...

Boniteza's Arts Chair, Pedagogical Curatorial Practices with Contemporary Artists as Arts‐Based Educational Research

International Journal of Art &Design Education, EarlyView.
Abstract This article puts forward a new methodology in artistic education. It is based on scientific utopia as it aims for the implementation in schools of the cátedras de la Boniteza (the Boniteza's Art Chair), where an inhabiting artist changes the institution from within through the development of quality art projects.

Giants in the cold: Morphological evidence for vascular heat retention in the viscera but not the skeletal muscle of the basking shark (Cetorhinus maximus)

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Fewer than 50 of the over 30,000 extant species of fishes have developed anatomical specializations facilitating endothermy in specific body regions. The plankton‐feeding basking shark (Cetorhinus maximus), traditionally classified as an ectotherm, was recently shown to have regionally endothermic traits such as centralized red muscle (RM ...
